Star Trek: Voyager

If IMDB had a way of getting a blood pressure reading on some of the users making comments for this show, the results would be frightening. There's no reason to EVER get that worked up over a program!

I've never been able to understand why a person would watch an entire seven year series, hating it all the way. Option: Turn the channel. You've got nothing to lose. It's not like in the theater where one might sit through a tepid movie because they paid admission. Voyager was free. Take it or leave it.

Personally, I enjoyed the show. I liked the plot, the cast, and most of the storylines. I appreciated the mix of drama and action. Voyager, in my opinion, was a very good program. Had I not felt good about it... I would have turned it off. Problem solved.

Not every series is going to be a masterpiece. Not everyone is going to like every show. If it's your cup of tea, drink it. If not, put the cup down.

I just finished watching Voyager start to end over the last several months. Of course there are some misses at times but mostly it's very good and definitely gets better as it goes along. Adding Seven of Nine was a great move but Janeway and the heritage crew also get more interesting as time goes on.

For me TNG is always #1 for the amazing reboot they did and the first class acting including the master Patrick Stewart. DS9 is my #2 because it tried to do something different, darker and serialized, and it worked! Voyager a close #3 for doing it all without the usual Alpha Quad crew of Klingons, Vulcans, Cardassians, etc. They really had to start from scratch in the D Quad and they did a great job.

Thanks to the writers, cast and crew for making this series special and a very worthy journey for this viewer. I'm on to 'Enterprise' now which doesn't have a great reputation but just a few episodes in I'm enjoying it.

Live Long and Prosper!

TNG will always be my absolute favourite but Voyager is my 2nd favourite of the franchise. It shares alot of similarities with TNG. Its casted well, lots of character development and an adventurous plot. There are some goofy episodes but the majority are very well done. I only wish they'd kept the franchise like they were in the 80s and 90s.. The newer ones have lost the star trek feeling. Voyager is a great show, a must watch.

I've been a fan of the Star Trek series since Star Trek the Next Generation. I used to watch The Next Gen after school and I loved the idea of going off to space to explore new worlds and meeting new peoples. But the one thing that bothered me about the series was all the constrictions that the Enterprise had to go through. There was several shows that had the Federation saying 'You can't do this, or that!' But with Star Trek Voyager you have a smaller ship with only a couple of dozen of people on board in a distant part of the galaxy who are trying to get home. Far away from their family, friends and superiors. The series does an great job at redefining several species and introduces new ones. The cast is great and is always fun to watch Robert Picardo as the Doctor because he gets me laughing all the time. The ship has plenty of interesting characters all growing throughout the series. The Doctor becomes more then just a hologram medical helper and becomes a real member of the ship. Captain Janeway becomes a strong confident captain. Tom Paris, a womanizing troublemaker buckles down with a former hot head, federation hating Klingon.

So if you love space exploration then this is the series for you.

It is the third masterpiece in the Star Trek series and without thinking too much! Yes it had some parts where the "Borgs" presented as a way to weak fraction but if we compare all other parts it is still one of the best Star Trek series.
